Teaching Resources for New Librarians & Library Staff

Centre for Teaching & Learning

IMPORTANT: while The Centre for Teaching, Learning and Technology and The Centre for Teaching and Learning are similar and have online resources helpful to you, make sure you know which Centre is staffed to assist you based on which campus you are on

OKANAGAN: The Centre for Teaching and Learning works with Instructors and Teaching Assistants to advance teaching excellence at UBC Okanagan.

VANCOUVER: The Centre for Teaching, Learning and Technology (CTLT) focuses on professional development in teaching and learning, integration of technology into teaching and learning, development and delivery of distance education courses and programs and other technology-enhanced learning opportunities and, through the Institute for the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (ISoTL), scholarly approaches to curriculum and pedagogy.

Mentorship & Professional Development

New librarians can benefit from mentorship, shadowing, and/or peer feedback on teaching practices. There is a helpful community of UBC librarians with teaching expertise who are here to provide support. See the TLT Confluence page for more resources on Peer Instruction at UBC.

You can ask specific questions or set up mentorship or feedback opportunities by email through the Teaching Community of Practice listserv (lib-tlcop@lists.ubc.ca). You can also directly contact the co-chairs of the Teaching and Learning Team: you can find contact information for the current co-chairs on the TLT Confluence page.
